“I’ll always love my Mama, she’s my favorite girl… I’ll always love my Mama, she brought me in this world…”
Song by The Intruders
Moth·er:
- A woman in relation to her child or children (noun)
- Bring up a child with love and affection (verb)
- Also known as Mom, Mama, Mum, MeeMee, Mommy
Dear Mother. The one, and only, that gives birth, sacrifices, loves, nurtures, provides for, cares for their child/children. A good mother is an example to their children, lovingly disciplines them, is a care-giver, health care provider, teacher, coach, trainer, guide, and moral compass.
Not every mother is perfect. Not every mother is considered a ‘good’ mother. However, the task is so great, and sometimes even overwhelming, that mothers everywhere are recognized on Mother’s Day, celebrated on the 2nd Sunday in May each year. Good mothers deserve recognition and honor on more than this one day, but Mother’s Day is set aside just to pay special homage to mothers, and for those who have lost their mothers, to their memories.
